Those who plant in tears will harvest SHOUTS OF JOY. They weep as they plant their seed, but they sing as they return with the HARVEST.

8 Weeks Left

Wow I can't believe I only have 8 weeks until we meet our little girl. I am getting really excited and can't wait to hold her. This has been a pretty uneventful pregnancy which is always nice. I am to the point where I can't sleep very well at night but I am not to the point of being totally uncomfortable.

Not much happening in our house. We are just pushing through our school. Got a late start this year with the move. Really did not start until Nov, so we are trying to just do one day at a time and not feel overwhelmed. I am going to try and do school up until I have the baby, we only have one snag that may cause us to take a break. My oldest has to have oral surgery and get a full new set of braces on the middle of March so we might take a couple of days off then so we can take care of her. She had braces already but they were removed to early with a tooth that never came up so we will be having surgery to pull the tooth up and then at the same time have her wisdom teeth pulled so I think she will need some days off. The lesson we have learned from this is to set our foot down when we feel something is not being done right. I knew those braces should not come off but the ortho told me it would be fine. Expensive lesson to learn but we are committed to taking care of every area of our children's lives, spiritual, physical, mental, etc.

Hopefully my next post won't take me 2 months to write. God Bless may you all have a Blessed Week.

Oh wow!! I can't believe you are so close! It seems that just yesterday you were announcing the pregnancy. I am SO THRILLED for you and your family! :) Hope Emily has an uneventful oral surgery...ouch. Sounds painful. :( Prayers coming your way for all that is happening in your busy life right now! Love ya! :)

Susan... I am so sorry for your losses. I have had 9 babies pass away from different things. You know the worry that goes with that. Since I also have high risk pregnancies, I worry with each blessing. I love our baby so much already. Yes, I use my doppler once, every day. Since like you said the baby is to small to feel movement. It eases my mind in hearing this blessing. I am so glad I found your blog and would like to join it, but I cant seem to find out how. There's not a join button, unless I'm overlooking it. Blessings, Audrey
